  1. Hi Karma and Shamsa,
    Your podcast was refreshing, insightful and interesting to listen to. I found it especially interesting to hear about Scotland's background and how the government and members of a higher social status had to learn the language, and how later on English became more prominent than Gaelic. It was also interesting to hear how Scotland's population is rejecting the language, as this behavior is quite different compared to other endangered languages where communities are desperate for it revitalization. This leads to my question: in your opinion, how would you make the efforts being made in the 21st century to revitalize the language (such as labelling) more effective, so that Gaelic is more accepted by Scotland's population?

    The podcast you created was really informative, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the podcast, you covered major topics on the gallic language as well as covered specific area of english which was a nice touch. I enjoyed how in-depth you discussed on how the language was being revived. Finally I feel using your own opinions strengthened the feel of a podcast. Something I found similar to my language was how your language was not only used in one region, but a majority of them.

    Good job.
